Why So Many Small Business Websites Never Bring In Work
Most small business owners have tried to sort their website at least once. It might be a DIY site you built on a weekend, a cheap template from a friend or a website that has not been touched in years.
The problem is rarely how it looks. It is that the website was never planned around the people you want to reach. It does not explain clearly what you do, it does not show up when locals search for your service, and the contact form is hard to find or does not work on a phone.
When that happens, your website sits there quietly while potential customers call someone else. A small business website should do the opposite, working in the background to bring in enquiries while you get on with the job. It is part of our wider website design service, sized to suit a smaller business.
Website Builder or Web Designer?
Website builders such as Wix, Squarespace and Canva are fine for getting something online quickly. Where they usually fall short is the planning, the copy and the SEO that help a website get found and turn visitors into enquiries.
If your time is better spent running your business, a web designer who handles all of that for you is usually the better investment.
What Every Small Business Website We Build Includes
Every website is planned around the customers you want more of, so it does more than just look good. These are the parts every small business website we build includes.
A Clear Message About What You Do
Visitors can tell within seconds what you offer, where you work and why they should choose you, so the right people stay and the wrong ones move on.
Words Written for Your Customers
We help shape the copy around the questions your customers ask before they get in touch, in plain language that sounds like your business.
The Foundations of SEO
Every page is set up with the titles, headings and structure Google looks for, so your website has the best start at showing up in local searches.
Designed for Phones First
Most of your visitors will find you on a phone, so every page is designed and tested to look good and load quickly on a small screen.
Enquiry Forms That Work
Short, simple forms sit where people are ready to act, and every enquiry goes straight to your inbox so you never miss one.
Room to Grow
Your website is built on WordPress, so you can make simple updates yourself and add pages for new services or areas as your business grows.
The Right Size Website for Your Business
There is no point paying for pages you do not need, or saving money on a website too small to bring in work. We look at how your business wins customers and recommend the size that suits you.
A One-Page Website
Usually right if you offer one main service, you are just starting out or most of your work comes from referrals. Everything sits on one well-planned page, from $1,997 + GST. Our landing page and one-page website page explains how it works.
A Multi-Page Website
Usually right if you offer several services, work across different suburbs or want to rank on Google for each type of work. Each service and area gets its own page, from $4,500 + GST.
Many small businesses start with one page and grow into a larger website later. Because every website we build is on WordPress, nothing has to be thrown away when you are ready to add more.
Small Businesses Getting Real Results
These small businesses all had a website that was not bringing in work. Here is what changed once their new website went live.
This Blue Mountains builder had a DIY Wix website that brought in no leads in two years. Two enquiries came in within days of the new website going live, and it has brought in 53 form enquiries since.
After three websites that never brought in work, this Sydney decorative finishes business won more than $100,000 of work from website enquiries within five months of launch.

How Much Does a Small Business Website Cost?
Our one-page websites start from $1,997 + GST, and multi-page websites start from $4,500 + GST. The final price depends on how many pages you need, how much of the writing we do for you and any extra features your business needs.
We do not sell fixed packages, because no two small businesses need exactly the same website. Instead, you get a fixed quote based on what your business actually needs, so you know the full cost before anything starts and you never pay for things you will not use.
You can pay with a 50% deposit and 50% on completion, or spread the cost with a payment plan over 12 or 24 months. A good website is an investment, not just a cost, and a payment plan lets it start bringing in work before it is paid off. Our guide to how much a website costs in Australia explains what changes the price.

We recently had our brand new website built by JS Website Design and the experience was fantastic from start to finish. Jordan and Simone were amazing to work with, they were patient with every request and always went out of their way to accommodate our needs, all with a big smile. Their communication was clear and nothing felt like too much trouble. We are so proud of the final results and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a team that genuinely cares about getting it right for their clients. Thanks again to the whole team, especially Jordan and Simone, for making the process so easy.Posted on Google![]()

THANK YOU SO MUCH SIMONE & JORDAN!! Our old website was boring, ugly, dysfunctional and not not at all showing off our best assests and skills as a building business. From our initial meeting with Jordan right through to the (millions) of emails back and forth with him and Simone, we knew we had found a team we could trust and rely on. We have next to no tech knowledge and Jordan and Simone ensured we understood everything - every single step of the way. Their design ideas have brought to life the best advertising tool for our business that we could have hoped for and given us a website we are PROUD to encourage potential clients to look at.Posted on Google![]()

Working with JS Website Design to bring my website to life has been a dream experience. I love the results, and I now have a site that is working for me, not just a portfolio site. From the beginning the process that the guys follow is clear, comprehensive and in depth. They don't just focus on the superficial side of web design, they ask the right questions to understand your business first and then design a site that not only shows people what you do, but puts your clients front and centre through structure, UX, SEO and the final design. I've enjoyed this experience, it was seamless, they were on the ball and I never felt neglected throughout. If you're looking to give your own site a facelift, then this is who I'd pick and recommend.Posted on Google![]()

I was fortunate to be recommended JS Website Design through a previous colleague and I am so glad I was able to connect with Jordan and Simone. After some horrific experiences with previous web designers for my other business that lost me time and money, JS Website Design was an absolute dream!. Streamlined processes, onboarding, design brief and regular communication, they are the absolute professionals and really care about getting it right for their clients and listening to their needs. Relieved that my new website is finally in the right hands and look forward to continuing to work with Simone and Jordan for my maintenance and SEO needs down the track.Posted on Google![]()

Small Business Website Design FAQs
How much does a small business website cost?
Our one-page websites start from $1,997 + GST and multi-page websites start from $4,500 + GST. You get a fixed quote before anything starts, and you can spread the cost with a payment plan over 12 or 24 months.
Do you offer small business website packages?
We do not sell fixed packages, because every business needs something slightly different. We quote each website on what your business actually needs, so you only pay for what you will use.
Should I use a website builder or a web designer?
A website builder can get you online quickly if you have the time to plan, write and set it up yourself. A web designer handles the planning, copy and SEO for you, which is usually what makes the difference between a website that sits there and one that brings in enquiries.
Is a one-page website enough for a small business?
It can be, if you offer one main service or you are just starting out. If you offer several services or want to rank in different suburbs, a multi-page website is usually the better choice.
Will my website show up on Google?
Every website we build includes the foundations of SEO, which gives it the best start in local searches. If you want to rank for more competitive searches, ongoing SEO can be added as a separate service.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes. Your website is built on WordPress, and we show you how to make simple updates such as changing text and photos.
Can you help after the website goes live?
Yes. Our website care plan looks after hosting, updates, security and daily backups from $100 + GST a month, and most of our clients choose to stay on one.
Do you work with small businesses outside Penrith?
Yes. We are based in Penrith and design websites for small businesses across Sydney and the rest of Australia.
